Riyan Parag Addresses Viral YouTube Search History Controversy

The Indian cricketer explains the origins of the leaked screenshot and says the incident was exaggerated online.

Riyan Parag clarified that the viral YouTube search history leak occurred before IPL 2024 but gained traction after his successful season.
The leaked search history included explicit searches related to Bollywood actresses Ananya Panday and Sara Ali Khan, leading to significant online criticism.
Parag revealed that a member of his Discord team allegedly attempted to set him up before the IPL, but the incident resurfaced due to his rising popularity.
He explained that the search history leak happened during a live stream when he used YouTube to play music after losing access to other platforms.
The 22-year-old cricketer, who became the first player from Assam to represent India, chose not to publicly clarify earlier, believing the situation was blown out of proportion.
